More Texas Justice

"Hopefully, I mean if he's stupid enough to come back around, we can git him."

I couldn't help but notice that not a word was said about the shooting being justified or not. That's Texas justice for you, the offender was so despicable in what he did, that no one even considered if the woman's actions were correct. The cop did indirectly address this, I suppose, when he said she was afraid. I wonder about that. I thought she might have been outraged that "he's back," or angered at his audacity.

Do you think the fact that he was not wounded is because she fired only a warning shot or was she a poor marksman (markswoman)? If she fired a warning shot while outraged or frightened or angered at his audacity, I say that's wrong. If she shot at him and missed him while either frightened or angered, I say that's wrong.

As sick a bastard as this guy is, the criterion for getting shot at should be much higher.

I'm not sure is peeping toms and people who expose themselves generally go on to commit rape. But in this case I suspect there was more outrage than fear and that would make the "nice clean DGU" as TS called it nothing of the sort.
